A Neuronal and Neuroanatomical Correlate of HIV-1 Encephalopathy Relative to HIV-1 Encephalitis in HIV-1-infected Children [PDF]
Progressive central nervous system dysfunction analogous to the AIDS dementia complex (ADC) seen in adults (HIV-1-associated progressive encephalopathy or HIV-1 encephalopathy) commonly occurs in HIV-1-infected children. The cause appears to be directly or indirectly related to HIV-1, rather than to other opportunistic pathogens. The exact mechanism(s)

Virion encapsidated HIV-1 Vpr induces NFAT to prime non-activated T cells for productive infection [PDF]
The majority of T cells encountered by HIV-1 are non-activated and do not readily allow productive infection. HIV-1 Vpr is highly abundant in progeny virions, and induces signalling and HIV-1 LTR transcription.

Defective HIV-1 proviruses produce viral proteins
Significance In HIV-infected patients on combination antiretroviral therapy (cART), greater than 95% of proviruses in the peripheral blood are “defective.” Historically, these defective proviruses have been thought to be dead-end products with no real ...

Enhancement of HIV-1 proteinase activity by HIV-1 reverse transcriptase
HIV-1 reverse transcriptase (RT) was found to increase the activity of HIV-1 proteinase in vitro and in eukaryotic cells. The effect of RT on proteinase activity was dose-dependent and independent of pH or salt concentration. The cleavage of sequences corresponding to all the naturally occurring cleavage sites that could be tested in vitro was enhanced.

Endocytic entry of HIV-1 [PDF]
Enveloped viruses enter target cells by membrane fusion or endocytosis. In the latter case, fusion of the viral envelope is induced by the acidic pH of the endocytic vesicle [1]. As with most other retroviruses, entry of the human immunodeficiency virus (HIV) is thought to be exclusively by pH-independent membrane fusion after interaction of its ...

Cellular IP6 Levels Limit HIV Production while Viruses that Cannot Efficiently Package IP6 Are Attenuated for Infection and Replication [PDF]
Summary: HIV-1 hijacks host proteins to promote infection. Here we show that HIV is also dependent upon the host metabolite inositol hexakisphosphate (IP6) for viral production and primary cell replication.
